Description
High amongst the trees next to the National Park, Samsara is a spacious, elevated, fully airconditioned 2 bedroom holiday home which is extremely private, yet close to all amenities.
Spacious refurbished 2 bedroom elevated home hidden amongst the trees, adjacent to the National Park with a seasonal creek in a peaceful & very private setting
10 minute walk to Alma Bay – the island's best swimming beach, the Arcadia shops, restaurants, well stocked gourmet convenience store & hotel. 5 minute walk to the RSL (Friday night markets & venue for many community events) & the bus stop. Central location for several of the island's bush walks.
The bedrooms are open plan – a divided mezzanine with a Queen bed on one side & 2 King singles & 2 Standard single beds on the other side. There are three decks with views into the National Park so you can enjoy the surrounding wildlife – birds, koalas, echidnas, possums, butterflies & the occasional wallaby. The rear deck has a gas BBQ with outdoor table & chairs
The house is unfenced so merges into the beauty of the park with impressive trees, granite boulders & a seasonal creek.
- Relax on the deck & watch the Island's wildlife.
- In the wet season the creek runs past the house so you have your own private spa.
- The Rainbow Lorikeets & Kookaburra's visit the deck every day & Koala's inhabit the trees at the rear of the house.
- As evening approaches, the Possums, Curlews & Wallabies emerge.
- Alma Bay (the island's best swimming beach) is only a 12 minute walk & has a shady lawn area & play park for children.
- Please note that Samsara is UNFENCED & surrounded by quite rocky terrain & does not have an outdoor play area for young children. When the creek is running it may be necessary to wade through a section of the driveway (all part of the Island experience)
- The kitchen is well equipped & includes a large fridge, convection cooktop & a pantry.
- Dining table seats 6 & lounge seating for 8.
- The lounge & dining area is very spacious with 6 large double glass sliding doors to admire the scenery.
- The doors are also screened to let the breezes through & keep out the insects & wildlife.
- The house is fully air-conditioned & also has pedestal fans.
- Bedrooms are upstairs on a large divided mezzanine.
- 1 Queen bed, 2 King singles & 2 singles
- There is additional bedding for the cooler months
- Bathroom also incorporates laundry with a large washing machine & dryer
- Separate toilet
- There are board games for all ages including a full size Chess set.
- There are books for all ages including a small but growing foreign language section.
- Gas BBQ & outdoor furniture provided on rear deck
- Parking for 2 cars under the house
- As the property is unfenced and due to the abundance of wildlife, Samsara is not suitable for pets.
Property sleeps 6 people.
A restriction applies - no more than 2 adults / bedroom.
There is a minimum 4 night stay from Christmas to New Year period & the Easter break.

"Far away and close to everything." lovely property set amongst the environment. Very private and quiet... off main roads but only a short walk to ammenities and transport. Felt like we were the only ones on the island when we were at the house. everything was well set up and there are plenty of thoughtful additional activities for the kids to chill out with once we got back from the beach. They loved exploring the area around the house and the regular wildlife visits from the birds. Great location, great house, great hosts. Will book again

All went well from booking to arrival to farewell. What a special 'tree-house' experience. Only the driveway was a bit tricky. A wonderful stay - great to have seen birds and other wildlife. Thanks.
